A Reunion I'm lei Dorado County.

The Mountain Democrat of Saturday says
The RECORD UNION recently alluded to
the fact that old FL Dorado residents. citi-
zens of Sacramento at present, are prepsr-
ing grand excursion to Placeryille upon
the first train that comes through TO this
point. Similar action has also been taken
in San Francisco by the many distinguished
FL Doradoans now residing there. They
have already secured a large number Of
names OF those who will attend, and when
the event comes, one of the greatest re-
unions ever occurring in this section of the
State will take place. Old Ell Dorado was
the birthplace of the State, and her chill
dren DO not forget Der, wherever they are,
OF to what high positions they may have
been called. Former citizens of this county
now occupy high positions in the State,
and their reunion will be q notable one,
whereih the dignity of office and the re-
straints of society are laid aside, and the
man of dignity, wealth and grace clasp
hands with the less fortunate, though
equally worthy, hard listed miner. over the
ground from which themselves, the Stale
and the nation have been enriched"

THE STILLWAIER SCANDAL.

An ex-Convict's Testimony Makes stor-
dock Rascal.
SALTWATER, Oct. 1.-THE investigation
of the charges against ex-Warden Reed
was continued at the prison this morning.
The first witness called was Mary Waister,
the convict who last April made an affidavit
charging that ex-Warden Reed had i'm
proper relations with her and then when
called to testify before the committee in
September declined to say that the affidavit
was true or false and refused to testify at
all against Reed. She was called this
morning in defense of Reed. She said: II
did not testify before because l did not
dare tell the truth. Warden Reed never
had any improper relations with Inc in the
world. He never took any improper liber-
ties with me. Mrs. McNeal wanted me to
make statement against Reed. She asked
me if hadn't had improper relations with
Reed and said no. Then she said after
was in the dungeon that when got ready
to be her friend and make statement
against Reed she would let me out
was put in the dungeon on Friday night
and on Sunday morning got down on my
knees to the matron and asked her for
giveness and said would make the state
ment if she would let me out. She then
let me out. was fed on bread and water
while in the dungeon. Warden StOrdOck

up my mind to be his friend and not Reeds

THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.

Important Business Said to Have Been
Transacted by the Directors.
New YORK, Oct. 2O.-The regular month
ly meeting of the Northern Pacific direc-
tors was held to-day and continued in ses-
sion seven hours. The only information
that officials would give out was that they
had passed a resolution to give no infor-
nation to the public. President Harris
when pressed said that they had taken i'm
portant action on different matters pend
ing. From other sources it is learned that
the committee appointed to confer with
the Union Pacific officials reported in favor
Of division of territory at the mouth of
the Columbia river and the taking of branch
lines north Of that point. They also re-
ported that they believed the Northern Pa
ciic should join in the lease of the Oregon
Navigation. One of the directors who
would talk little said the action taken
was favorable to all three companies inter-
ested and he stated that some important
announcements will be made tomorrow.

English Grain Markets.

LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE Mark Lane Ex-
press says: Frosts and lack of rain have
been unfortunate. Values generally are
stationary. The sales of English wheat
during the week were 66,9S1 quarters at 29s
Sd, against 58,AS quarters at 29s I'd the cor
responding week last year. Flour is quiet
and fairly steady. Oats are more active
and values improved. Beans and peas are
firmer and occasionally dearer. Trade in
foreign wheat is labori0us. South Russian
is I'D higher, although buyers generally
have not agreed to the advance. South
Russian shipments are increasing. Amer
lean Is more depressed since the final esti-
mate of the wheat crop was published.

DICKINSON,S FIRST COURT.

1t is Opened by Judge Francis, Who
People.
DICKINSON, Oct. 2O.-[Special] 1.-The
first district court in North Dakota west
Of Mandan, on the Missouri river, was
opened to-day by Judge Francis at this
place. In dedicating the temple of Justice
the Judge made some appropriate and
we'll timed remarks, in the course OF
which he took occasion to compliment the
people of Stark county on the provision
they had made, for the purpose, in hand
some and we'll appointed court house,
much superior, as he said, to many in much
older and more populous counties. His re-
marks in empanel]ing the grand jury were
very impressive and were listened to with
marked attention not only by that jury,
but by the large assembly in the body of
the court room. He made very favorable
impression upon our people. In the after
noon various matters were disposed of in a
manner to indicate that there would be
little friction in the court proceedings.
Timothy, William H. and Patrick CuskeIly
were made citizens of the United States:
also MAIDS Christensen, Daniel Jacobson
and Carl Peterson.
The Dickinson Cemetery association has
been incorporated and has fully organized
with E. F. Messersmidt as president; j. P.
Tingle, vice-president; James G. Camp
bell, secretary, and L. d. Kidder, treasurer.
A committee was appointed for the selec-
ton OF suitable cemetery grounds.
Building operations continue to move
briskly forward. The handsome new
store building of J. F. Vinton is completed
and is being filled up with goods.
DR.. Mcdonald and Mr.. Charles F. Merry

A Report That the Resignation of
Mr.. Odell is the First Gun
Against the Ring.
Mr.. Willard Determined to Wipe Out
the Corrupt Land Ring and
Benefit the West.
Negotiations for u Consolidation With
the Wisconsin Central Prog
ressing Satisfactorily.
A Through Line to Chicago.


ST.. PAUL, Oct. 14.-From a letter from
New York it is learned that Assistant Cen
eral Manager Odelrs resignation from the
Northern Pacific is the first gun in the
campaign of radical changes planned by
the Willard party. The letter intimates
that his resignation was forced because he
was powerless to stem the work of the cor
rupt land ring dominating Northern Pa
citic affairs which Willard is determined to
wipe out. The retirement of Vice Presi-
dent Oakes and President Harris are the
next steps promised. The land ring of the
the Northern Pacific IS one of the most
corrupt concerns that ever fastened its
fangs on the throat of territory. 1t is
openly charged in Dakota that this ring
has nearly ruined the prospects OF that
territory. Emigrants have been prohibited
from settling along the line Of the road in
order to provide large tracts for specula-
ton. Willard is said to grow more indig-
nant every day as he examines into affairs
and finds to what an enormous extent the
road has been cheated out of contiguous
population. Negotiations for the consoli-
dation Of the Northern Pacific and the
Wisconsin Central railways are now in
rapid progress. A through line from Chi
cago to the Pacific will soon be arranged.
The consolidation is great blow at many
of the Northwestern's interests and it is
intimated that the tour OF Chaucy M. De-
pew has something to do with Vanderbilt
interests, which are somewhat disturbed
by the threatened swallowing of it's
through traffic by the Wisconsin Central.
